As an emerging teacher, learning and understanding how to navigate through a global pandemic have been instrumental in my development. With unexpected shifts from in-person learning to online learning, I believed it was important to maintain an awareness of emerging technologies that can enhance student learning so I attended a workshop that provided me with the knowledge and resources that would allow students to succeed in a different learning environment. In addition, I sought new knowledge through research by completing a trauma course that deepened my understanding of trauma and how to better support students who may be experiencing trauma, which would improve my ability to support student success in a safe learning environment. Throughout my practicums, I was actively seeking out feedback for all of my lessons and was open and willing to immediately apply it to subsequent lessons as evident in the excerpt from my narrative assessment. Through collaboration and ongoing critical reflection, I can consistently improve my teaching.
